On the East Coast, there is only one mountain range that runs east-west.
North of Springfield, Massachusetts and south of Northampton, Massachusetts (which lies approx. 15 miles north of Springfield,) there are a group of mountains known as the Holyoke Range (alternately as the 'Seven Sisters') that run East-West. Along with the Mount Tom Range, these roughly connect the Berkshire Mountains in the west with the 'Springfield Mountains' on the eastern side of the fertile Connecticut River Valley.
The Holyoke Range is visible from all over Massachusetts' Connecticut River Valley, and are whimsically-shaped (think Dr. Seuss, who came from Springfield, Mass.)
In the west, there are five mountain chains that run, in part, east to west; however, none of these run completely east-west like Massachusetts' Holyoke Range. The San Gabriel, San Bernardino, and Tehachapi Mountains in Southern California all feature portions that run East and West. There are two peaks among them that are over 10.000 feet. Also, the Ouachita pronounced (wosh-i-taw) mountains in OK and the Unita mountains of Utah which are 13,528 ft at the highest, Grouse Creek (in Utah and Idaho).

Yes - one on America's east coast; several on America's west coast.The east coast's only east-west mountain range is located approximately 10 miles north of Springfield, Massachusetts, and bisected by the Connecticut River. For this reason, technically,many consider it to be two ranges: the Holyoke Range, which rises immediately east of the river; and the Mount Tom Range, which rises immediately west of the river.The west coast features numerous examples of east-west mountain ranges, e.g. the Uinta Mountains in northeastern Utah run east-west. The western end is approximately 50 miles east of Salt Lake City and they run about 150 miles east into Colorado. The Ouachita Mountains are a mountain range located in west central Arkansas and southeastern Oaklahoma. Unlike most other mountain ranges in the United States, the Ouachitas run east and west rather than north and south. Also, Ouachitas are distinctive in that volcanism, metamorphism, and intrustions are notably absent throughout most of the system. The San Bernardino Mountainsrun for approximately 60 mi (100 km) east-west on the southern edge of the Mojave Desert in southwestern San Bernardino County. The entire Transverse Range of California trend East and West. Santa Ynez, San Rafael Mountains, Sierra Madre, Topatopa Mountains, Santa Susana Mountains, etc, etc. The northern Channel Islands are also part of the Transverse Ranges.
